Reset a First to arrive schedule

By resetting the First to arrive schedule, you are manually terminating an active Unlock schedule. You can achieve this by setting up a request-to-exit button specifically for this task. When the last person is leaving the facility, they can push this button to wrap up an active Unlock schedule ahead of time.

To connect the button to the controller, refer to our guide on wiring a request-to-exit button to the controller.
